I recently met a friend for breakfast at Panera and was surprised, nay shocked, to learn that they didn’t offer any gluten-free items at the bread bar. How could this be? Are they not aware of the growing number of people who are flocking toward gluten-free lifestyles?

The solution? De-gluten-ize the whole place! Namely Marly and her crew came up with gluten-free recipes for nine different items on the Panera menu. But will the bakery chain add any of these creations to their roster? Your move, Panera.

these look way too delicious to be GF! I would definitely go to Panera if they had items like this available. I have to say, I’m not surprised to hear they don’t have any GF baked goods on the menu, I imagine it would be pretty difficult to guarantee no cross contamination. Personally, I haven’t seen GF products available at any bakeries other than those that are specifically GF. Have you?
